Answer:

<em><u>B. Store T sells apples at the lowest rate</u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Store R sells apples at $1.20 <u>per pound.</u>

Store S sells <u>4 pounds</u> of apples at $5.00.

Store T sells <u>3 pounds</u> of apples at $3.48.

To find the answer, <u>you have to find the unit price</u> for both Store S and Store T.

For Store S: 4 pounds = $5. <u>Divide the cost by the pounds</u>. This will give us <u>$1.25 per pound.</u>

For Store T: 3 pounds = $3.48. Same thing as Store S, d<u>ivide the cost by the number of pounds</u>. This will give us <u>1.16 per pound</u>.

Now, we know the unit prices for each store. It's time to answer the question.

A. Store R sells apples at the lowest rate.

This is <em><u>incorrect</u></em> because the store that sells the apples at the lowest rate is Store T.

B. Store T sells the apples at the lowest rate.

This answer is <em><u>correct</u></em>, but I'll also take a look at the other two

C. Store S charges a lower rate for apples than Store T.

Again, this is <em><u>incorrect</u></em> because Store T sells apples at the lowest rate.

D. Store T charges the same rate for apples as Store R.

<em><u>Nope</u></em>, Store T sells the apples at a lower rate than Store R.

This means your answer will be <u>B. Store T sells apples at the lowest rate</u>.

Write an equation for a line parallel to y=3x-3 and passing through the point (4,15)
Andrews [41]

Hello!

To find the equation of a line parallel to y = 3x - 3 and passing through the point (4, 15), we need to know that if two lines are parallel, then their slopes are equivalent.

This means that we create a new equation in slope-intercept form, which includes the original slope, which is equal to 3.

In slope-intercept form, we need a y-intercept. So, we would substitute the given ordered pair into the new equation with the same slope and solve.

Remember that slope-intercept form is: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

y = 3x + b (substitute the ordered pair (4, 15))

15 = 3(4) + b (simplify)

15 = 12 + b (subtract 12 from both sides)

3 = b

Therefore, the equation for the line parallel to the line y = 3x - 3, and passing through the point (4, 15) is y = 3x + 3.

Which of the following data is used to determine credit scores? A. who stays with you at your current residence B. the location
miskamm [114]

Answer:

The correct option is the length of stay at your current residence.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been asked that which data is used to determine credit scores.

The correct option is the length of stay at your current residence.

This question is used to determine credit scores. This helps the lender to look up information about your history of payments. When a lender asks this question they are able to determine how long you typically stay in one place, and look up bills at that residence to make sure they are paid on time before giving out a loan. They can also use this information to determine a credit score based on what is being paid on time, late or not at all...

If the ratio of a circle's sector to its total area is 1/3, what is the measure of
nalin [4]

Answer:

option A:  120°

Step-by-step explanation:

Area \ of \ circle = \pi r^2\\\\Area \ of \ sector = \pi r^2 \frac{ \theta}{360}\\\\Ratio \ of \ sector \ to \ circle = \frac{1}{3}\\\\That is, \\\frac{1}{3} = \frac{\pi r^2 \frac{\theta}{360}} {\pi r^2}\\\\\\\frac{1}{3} = \frac{\theta}{360} \\\\\frac{360}{3} = \theta\\\\120 = \theta
